I actually read the description. But I don't understand why it is the case.
When I download other packages from CPAN. I don't need to specify
anything. They get automatically installed in a directory (I think it
is site_perl?) in my local perl installation directory. Why I have to
explicitly say where bioperl should be installed ?

Please see the following webpage.Search for "Using Subversion".

Once, I saw some installing command after "Building BioPerl-Run" when
I run '.Build install". But I can not reproduce it any more.
I delete the download and run the installation process again. But it
still doesn't seem to work.
